Racist graffiti at Eastern Michigan University another hoax

Michigan State Police, the FBI, local law enforcement and Eastern Michigan University officials have determined that a series of racist graffiti messages left on school property in late 2016 and early this year were the result of a hoax.

Candlelight vigils, protests, and more than 1,080 campus security hours were spent over the past year in Ypsilanti on racial slurs at Eastern Michigan University. The former student who was arrested and charged, however, is 29-year-old Eddie Curlin — a minority.

Mr. Curlin was arraigned in Washtenaw County District Court on Oct. 23 for incidents in September 2016, October 2016, and early 2017. He was charged with malicious destruction of property, identity theft and using computers to commit a crime.

“To know that it was a person of color is hurtful,” said a black student named Jaiquae Rodwell, The Washington Post reported Tuesday. “As a black student, to know that another black person is using the n-word in a negative way is embarrassing.”

At least this college doesn't cover up things like SU did for the black students that drew nooses.

I'd like to know the statistics on this happening. Believe it will show that is is usually other blacks just trying to stir the pot. Same as the police shooting more blacks which is also wrong

Because he is black, he will not be called a racist and will probably not be charged with a hate crime. Happens all of the time.

The excuse will be that he was just bringing attention to racism and will get a pass. We have been told that a black person can not be racist so no charges will follow.

Huh. I don't recall the perpetrators of a similar crime at SU being charged nor arrested. They should have been.

Maybe YOU should look at statistics--police are not killing more blacks...of the 800 people killed by police so far this year, 380 are whit, and 185 are black. That is published by the liberal rag, the Washington Post.
